Semum (2008)
Pure but artsy masterpiece from Hasan karacadag!
This true story have terrifying and unforgettable moments for Islamic exorcism world.Some scenes are really creepy and first lets explain what is the Semum; ''According to Islam, people have been created from dry mud and before human being is created, there were some creatures that live on earth. These creatures are created from the smokeless blaze of the hot fire in hell and later they are united with a hellish poison. Soon they became SEMUM. After The Creator blowed to human from his soul and send them to earth, first Devil and some SEMUMS begin to cause many kinds of badnesses to people because of they are jealous of human. Even some SEMUMS spend their whole lifes by attacking people, controlling their brains and torturing their souls with fearful nightmares. Till the judgement day that cosmos will take the last breath, the devilish SEMUMS are sworn to cause all kinds of fear to people. In this movie, the information about them becomes clear by a real story!'' Shortly, a word in Kuran 'SEMUM', is a very dangerous monster which incures in meshes of a person and poison him / her. The Semums can attack anybody at any moment, they can move so fast and in some cases they never go back, make the life a hell to the person it has got into. Semum shows ,perfect performances by all the main actors and I think director and writer Hasan karacadag want to make real stories of Islamic exorcism,and he want to say that could have happened to everybody.Because the main actress of semum is innocent woman and she does not understand that why she attacked by this demonic creatures.The finals scene of Semum is really shocking and I very impressed the editing of surprise scene!It was really well edited and effectively frightening.And with Semum we can say anymore we Turks had a international and professional Turkish horror movie,Finally I like horror movies which like Semum because of Jinns,devil and other dark worlds of Islamic mysticism's creatures are very reach and impressive than stupidly made zombies and vampires!
